What I was thinking was it would be cool to make an OS from scratch(including programming language and screen format, like on a real computer) in assembly. If this has already bean suggested please let me know.

You should take a look at the computers in RedPower. They write entirely in Assembly if you are not using FORTH.

it is technically not possible for CC to use any other language than lua. it runs a lua environment at the java level not at an assemble level dan would have to create a fully functional computer emulator like elo did then make a lua interpreter fro that machine this would make it run slower and be a large project with little gain. CC will always be lua if you want something else then make your won mod or wait for RP2 to update.

-.-
Redpower will update when it updates. No one knows, basically.
Also, your signature is a broken program, which, would it work, would be against the forum rules.

So let me get this straight, you suggest full fledged operating systems in Assembly then you ask where you can learn Assembly? God… I'm loosing even more faith in humanity.
As the get Cloudy has said many time "No.".

For the love and joy of all thing sane, please read the Suggestions Not to Make thread first. I'm not sure if you're asking if we can swap Lua for Assembly, if you want to add an Assembly parser/executor to Lua, or what.
